About
Hello there!

I'm Lynda Smith and I'm excited to offer my assistance to you and your furry companion! As an experienced behavioral specialist and a positive reinforcement dog trainer, I have worked with dogs of all breeds, including rescue dogs. With over 45 years of dog training experience, I have helped many dog owners with basic obedience training, crate and potty training, and even choosing suitable toys, treats, and supplies.

My basic training sessions cover leash manners, sitting, staying, shaking, high-fiving, and coming when called. I also specialize in correcting bad habits such as biting, excessive barking, jumping, and aggressive or reactive behavior.

Located in Coatesville, Pa, I offer private sessions at my facility or am happy to travel to your private home or training facility for group or private sessions. The rate for travel and sessions will vary depending on the location and number of dogs.

I take pride in delivering excellent results and look forward to helping you achieve your training goals. Feel free to message, text, or call me anytime, and I'll be happy to assist you and your pup in any way I can! 🙂

Tucker, a Shepherd mix who was three years old, was rescued by me. Tucker demonstrated reactive and aggressive tendencies towards certain humans and canines. Lynda's training approach and expertise proved to be extremely beneficial! Her kind-heartedness is unparalleled, and I highly endorse her services.

Through repeated practice, Lynda assisted us in successfully integrating a very large and anxious rescue dog, who likely had experienced past trauma, into our household. Lynda's exceptional patience and expertise facilitated our own training in dog management and use of various techniques and equipment that proved effective. Our family wouldn't have been able to manage without her invaluable support!

Lynda has a deep understanding of the essential aspects of dog training. A significant portion of the training process involves training the human to interact with their dog(s) in the right way. Once you learn how to command and deliver instructions appropriately, the dog(s) will quickly grasp and respond. However, during the training session, be sure to have an ample supply of tiny treats within reach. These bite-sized rewards will be consumed faster than you expect!

Our household now includes a well-behaved puppy who gets along with our older dog. It's safe to say that we humans have also undergone some training along the way. Consistency, structure, and patience have been crucial in achieving our success.

Lynda's expertise in dog training has benefited both my furry friend and my acquaintances' pets. Her thorough dog training program emphasizes the necessity of adhering to training guidelines outside of sessions, utilizing safe and compassionate techniques in the process. You'll see positive changes right after the very first session. I wholeheartedly endorse Lynda as an authority in dog training and behavior modification. Additionally, her training methods discourage dogs from pursuing wildlife or other distractions.
